Q: ASP.NET @Register vs. @Reference I'm working with referencing user controls on my ASPX page and I'm wondering what the difference is between these two page directives.
@Reference
@Register

A: @Register is primarily used for registering tag prefixes to declaratively use controls within a page.
<%@ Register tagprefix="my" namespace="MyNamespace" %>

<my:CustomControl runat=server />

@Reference is primarily used to refer to a page or user control (by file name or virtual path) to programatically refer to members of the page or control.
<%@ Reference Control="MyControl.ascx" %>

<%  MyControl ctrl = (MyControl) Page.LoadControl("MyControl.ascx");
    ctrl.CustomProperty = "..."; //REFERENCE directive is needed to access property
%>

A: @Register is the more commonly used directive.  You use this when you want to use a user control in your aspx or ascx page declaratively.  @Register associates the control with a specific prefix and you can then use it in your markup.
@Reference only tells ASP.NET to compile the other control when your aspx or ascx page is compiled.  That makes sure it is available at run-time and can be added to your control hierarchy programmatically.  This is less common since dynamically changing user controls at runtime is not comon.
Here's a good blog post about it.

Q: How to cleanup the derby instance running Hive metastore I went through multiple threads on SO which talks about migrating hive metastore to mysql in case multiple users want to access it. This case is different.
I'm trying run a hive program to execute a SQL on a dataset and then clean it up(close the context) to run another SQL on another dataset. But I see the error saying:
ERROR XSDB6: Another instance of Derby may have already booted the database
My question is- is there a way I can clean up the derby instance running hive metastore so that my next context initialization doesn't see the previous instance? I feel the situation is similar to running multiple unit tests and there should be a way to clean things up.

A: I was getting the same error while creating Data frames on Spark Shell:

Caused by: ERROR XSDB6: Another instance of Derby may have already booted the database /metastore_db.

Cause:
I found that this is happening as there were multiple other instances of Spark-Shell already running and holding derby DB already, so when i was starting yet another Spark Shell and creating Data Frame on it using RDD.toDF() it was throwing error:
Solution:
I ran the ps command to find other instances of Spark-Shell:
ps -ef | grep spark-shell

and i killed them all using kill command:
kill -9 Spark-Shell-processID ( example: kill -9 4848)

after all the SPark-Shell instances were gone, i started a new SPark SHell and reran my Data frame function and it ran just fine :)

I tried making yesterday's project out of felt. Equally cute, I think. And more durable, too. To make them, follow these instructions, but use felt and a hot glue gun instead of paper.

1. Cut out 10 paper circles (any size, as long as they're all the same). Text weight paper will be easier to work with than cardstock.
2. Cut each circle along the radius.
3. Put a small piece of double-stick tape on each side of the cut near the edge of the paper.
4. Flip the circle over so the taped side is down; then pull each flap across the circle toward you and twist to form a cone. Press the taped ends down to secure. You should end up with two cones that look vaguely like a fortune cookie. Do this to each of your 10 circles.
5. String the double cones together with a needle and thread. Make sure they're gathered snugly in a ball and tie a knot. Use the trailing ends of the thread to make a loop for hanging.
Here's one made from magazine pages. If you like recycled crafts, give it a whirl. Or try a felt version!

Check it out—Kathleen from Twig & Thistle used my gift bow tutorial to make bows out of felt and hot glue. They're so cute! See more of her handiwork in her post right here. It's a great idea, since these are less likely to be permanently mashed in the car on the way to grandma's.

A couple folks tipped me off that one of the projects in Storey Publishing's new book One-Yard Wonders uses my fabric. So I had to investigate.
There it is, in this casserole caddy project. And I assure you this yard of fabric is very pleased to be photographed next to that Orla Kiely (love her!) pear canister. Kind of like when you get to have your photo taken with the president or someone. Not that I would personally know. George Bush Sr. and Secret Service did walk down the hall past me once at a conference I designed graphics for, though. It was my only brush with serious fame. But I digress wildly.
People, I love this entire book. 101 adorable sewing projects that all use only one yard of fabric. That's my style, all right; you won't catch me sewing anything bigger than that. The photos are beautiful, and it comes with patterns for any projects that require them. I recommend it highly.

I received a little package from JetPens.com the other day. Stationery, pens, and paper goodies fill me with irrational amounts of glee! So do miniature envelopes made from the insides of security envelopes. Yup, look what I did. JetPens has a mini envelope template (this) with which you can trace various sizes of envelopes, then cut, fold, and glue. I tried out their Japanese glue pen (this) to secure them, and it worked like a charm. The blue glue dries clear and bonds strongly. A tip: shake it before using.
Want to get some stocking stuffers or a treat for yourself? JetPens is giving away two $25 gift certificates to How About Orange readers. I know, it's holiday giveaway season over here, right? Just leave a comment on this post by Friday (12/11/09) midnight CST. Two random winners will be drawn, announced in this post, and emailed a gift certificate.

Somehow I ended up at Marie Claire Idées and found this zippered pouch project, which is explained in French. If you need help deciphering it, use Google Translate. But as far as I can tell, you can download a PDF of the image they use on the pouch. Print it on iron-on inkjet transfer paper (available at craft stores and your standard office supply stores, like Office Max, etc.) Then iron the image onto plain white cotton and sew it into a little zippered bag. (Here's a sewing tutorial if you need help.) Their downloadable photograph even has a tag in it where you can use a permanent pen to write the recipient's name. I think.
I love this idea, because you could take photos of your own stuff or toss some items on the scanner, then make totally customized bags as gifts. It would also be fun to make little bags from the vintage labels in this Flickr set.

Check out these funny Photoshop-related items—I bookmarked them but can't remember which sites I saw them on originally. Looks like the fridge magnets from ThinkGeek.com are out of stock, and I'm not sure about these photo frames from ILoveBlocks.com. But I bet you could make your own DIY versions pretty easily with some Photoshop screen shots. Fun.

Look at all the cool goodies $200 would buy you from the Sears website. (If your name is Jess and you like orange things and modern patterns, that is.) That doormat is calling my name.

To help you with your holiday shopping, Sears is giving away two $50 gift cards to How About Orange readers. The cards can be used in stores and online at Sears, Kmart, and Lands End, so you have tons of options.

Crestfallen issue #1
A comic book set in an epic world of high-fantasy! Follow five unlikely heroes as they begin their journey in a world set aflame!
Crestfallen
263 backers pledged SEK 44,565 to help bring this project to life.
Project We Love Härnösand, Sweden Comic Books
SEK 44,565
pledged of SEK 30,000 goal
50 000sek (aprox. $5600) - A 4-page sample of a Reliot prequel.
70 000sek (aprox. $7800) - Along with the four pages it will be 20 more pages with sketches and such - documenting the journey to the finished product - including honoring our fine backers.
85 000sek (aprox. $9500) - Crestfallen issue #2
This is Crestfallen
Crestfallen is comic book that follow five protagonists as they are forced upon a journey through the high-fantasy world of Alfta.
We will follow a nobleman, an assassin, a barbarian, a slave and a strange hermit - as they introduce us all to this new world.
This kickstarter is for the first issue of the continuing series. The first issue will be 28-pages of high-fantasy action!
Luka & Kris
The comic book is written by swedish writer Kris Dybeck and illustrated by montenegrin artist Luka Cakic.
They want to do this kickstarter to make sure they release the book in the way they have envisioned it. If all goes well they might consider releasing the following issues through a publisher.
Tigator
First we have Tigator - the prince. Youngest son to the king of Zerác. We meet him in the midst of a rebellion against his father's crown.
The one guiding us through the world of Alfta will be Zorim - the hermit. We meet Zorim on the first page of the book, as he sets his feet outside of the tower he was raised in. He has spent his life learning about the world and it's inhabitants. Now is the first time he, and we, will meet the world outside.
Reliot
From the northern lands, known as the Pyrelands, comes Reliot - the dragonslayer. He is an old and scarred warrior, that we meet as a caged attraction for the emperor of Edrah's gladiators to toy with.
Elander
This is our every-man, Elander - the slave. A young man who has grown up as a slave in the Edrah empire. When we meet him, he has just become apart of the gladiator games in the emperor's honor.
Tiffikiel
Tiffikiel - the assassin, is a stone-cold killing machine. This half-elf finds her way through the world as both an assassin and as a bounty-hunter. Many know of her name but few know of her face.
The risks and challanges that lay ahead of us is really that we rely on Luka being able fully focus on just this project. That is the reason for the budget.
With our goal in mind we can have Luka focus fully on doing the pages we have left and then it's off to the printers and out to the backers.
Since we are not relying on anything other than ourselves, the printer and the postal system we have very few risks going in to this project.

История партии
Дата создания партии «За Украину!» — 9 октября 1999 года. Первоначальное название партии — Партия социальной защиты (ПСЗ). Официально зарегистрирована 4 мая 2000 года. Партия социальной защиты была участником лишь одной избирательной кампании в Верховную раду Украины. На парламентских выборах 2006 года партия получила поддержку 0,05 % избирателей.

23 декабря 2008 года в Верховной Раде Украины была создана депутатская группа «За Украину!», в состав которой вошли 17 народных депутатов во главе с Вячеславом Кириленко.

21 февраля 2009 года в Киеве состоялось учредительный съезд общественного движения «За Украину!». В мероприятии приняли участие более 200 делегатов, среди которых — народные депутаты Украины, депутаты областных, районных и городских советов, представители общественности и деятели культуры.

19 декабря 2009 года лидер общественного движения и депутатской группы «За Украину!» Вячеслава Кириленко избран председателем партии «За Украину!». Первым заместителем председателя партии избран народный депутат Владимир Мойсик, заместителями — Ксения Ляпина и Юрий Зубко. Делегаты съезда избрали состав политического бюро партии, в которую вошли народные депутаты из депутатской группы «За Украину!», главы областных организаций, председатель Центральной ревизионной комиссии и секретарь Центрального исполнительного комитета.

В декабре 2011 года Арсений Яценюк подписал с Вячеславом Кириленко соглашение о совместной оппозиционной деятельности и объединении его партии «За Украину!» с «Фронтом перемен» после выборов.

Президентские выборы 2010 года
Партия «За Украину!» приняла решение поддержать на президентских выборах 2010 года кандидатуру действующего Президента Украины Виктора Ющенко. Согласно результатам выборов Ющенко набрал 5,45 % голосов избирателей или 1 341 539 действительных голосов и во второй тур не прошел. Во втором туре партия не поддержала ни одного из двух кандидатов — ни Юлию Тимошенко, ни Виктора Януковича.

Региональные выборы 2010 года
Партия «За Украину!» приняла участие в местных выборах 31 октября 2010 года. По их итогам партия представлена в Областных советах Сумской области (2 мандата), Волынской области (1 мандат) и Ивано-Франковской области (1 мандат). Все кандидаты от партии были избраны по одномандатным округам.

Парламентские выборы 2012 года
В апреле 2012 года, шесть оппозиционных партий договорились о совместном участии в парламентских выборах 2012 года на базе партии экс-премьера Украины Юлии Тимошенко — Всеукраинского объединения «Батькивщина». В объединенную оппозицию вошли партии Батькивщина, Фронт перемен, Народный рух Украины, Народная самооборона, «За Украину!» и Реформы и порядок.

20 июня 2012 года было объявлено, что в состав объединённой оппозиции «Батькивщина» входит партия экс-министра обороны Украины Анатолия Гриценко «Гражданская позиция».

Jokes about cobalt reptiles aside, this Poker shape is really a smart addition to Savinelli's shape chart lineup. The bowl sports a slight forward cant, lending it a sense of implied momentum. It sits firmly, feels substantial in the hand, and the lightly down-turned stem should make it an easier clencher, too.


As of November 26, 2018 Saving the West is changing our name to Living Forests, to better match our long-term goals and strategy. Over the next few weeks you'll see some minor changes to the website but we're planning a whole new look during 1Q2019!
We're proud to announce that the Center received a Wood Innovations Grant from the US Forest Service to form a Wood Utilization Team for California and Nevada!
The Living Forests (formerly Saving the West) team was organized in 2016 by the Center for the Force Majeure to promote a whole systems approach to the challenges of fire and drought in the Sierra Nevada and ultimately across the intermountain west. We have become a collaborative group bringing a range of individuals, organizations, artists, scientists, policy makers and community groups committed to building enduring environmentally informed end-to-end solutions. We believe success is available only when we can inspire the development a 21st century forestry model.
We support the development of a renewable wood products economy, creating a sustainable economic engine for thousands of people in historically depressed areas. The beneficial effects of a renewable wood based economy transcend traditional economic virtues. In a virtuous cycle, good environmental stewardship becomes good economic development. Wildlife, water quality, quality of work and life all improve.
The Center for the Study of the Force Majeure brings together artists, scientists, engineers and planners and visionaries to design mitigation systems and policies that respond to the issues raised by global temperature rise at the scale that they present.
We focus on identifying and developing what we call Whole Systems approaches that merge environmental, social and economic patterns of organization. These in turn generate comprehensive complex systems where human stewardship is at the service environmental stewardship.


The movie starts in 2005, with Channing Tatum as Jenko, the high school jock with the pretty girlfriend coveted by Jonah Hill as Schmidt, the typical nerd who Jenko refers to as the "not-so-Slim Shady." Cut to 2012 with both Jenko and Schmidt joining the police force and partnering up on park patrol. An underachieving team, Jenko can't remember the full Miranda rights and Schmidt is trigger-shy. After messing up a drug bust, they are reassigned to 21 Jump Street, under the scrutiny of Captain Dickson, played hilariously by Ice Cube who isn't afraid to blast the insults. Their mission: Go undercover at a local high school and find the supplier of a new synthetic drug.
But going back to high school is far from a redux. Times have changed and so have teenagers. Jenko is no longer worshipped by the cool kids. In fact, his ambivalent attitude toward his gas-guzzling car and the environment in general exiles him to the chemistry lab with the tech geeks who perform raps about the elements. Schmidt however, finds the affection of cute girl Molly, played by Brie Larson, and becomes buds with her sometimes-boyfriend Eric, played by Dave Franco (yes, James' younger brother), who happens to be the school drug dealer.
Jonah Hill joyfully relives high school until he gets in over his head, having trouble separating real life from his fantasy of how high school could have been. Channing Tatum gets his dose of what it's like not to fit in and the benefits of studying science. Overall, 21 Jump Street succeeds in bringing laughs while smartly making fun of itself.
Bottom Line: 21 Jump Street is a clever, fun comedy that will have you laughing while longing for those iconic gems from the 1980s. Totally well done!

Station M
The flat, muddy deep ocean floor—known as the abyssal plain—is one of the largest and least known habitats on this planet. It covers more than 50 percent of Earth's surface and plays a critical role in the carbon cycle. For 30 years, MBARI Senior Scientist Ken Smith and his colleagues have studied deep-sea communities at a research site called Station M, located 4,000 meters (2.5 miles) below the ocean's surface and 291 kilometers (181 miles) off the coast of Santa Barbara, California.
Doing deep-sea research is incredibly challenging, time-consuming, and sometimes dangerous. For this reason, MBARI strives to build and deploy robots that help scientists better understand the changes taking place in our ocean. At Station M, Smith and his colleagues rely upon satellites, human-occupied vehicles, such as Alvin, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), a seafloor rover, seafloor landers, coring devices, fish traps, sediment traps, respirometers (which measure oxygen consumption), current meters, and time-lapse cameras to study abyssal ecosystems.
Over the past 30 years, Smith and his team have constructed a truly unique underwater observatory that operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for a full year without servicing. Building a robotic observatory is challenging under normal circumstances; imagine doing it 4,000 meters underwater!
The results of their research have dramatically changed marine biologists' perceptions of life in the deep sea and our understanding of climate change. Data collected at Station M show that the deep sea is far from static—physical conditions and biological communities can change dramatically over timescales ranging from days to decades.
Ultimately, this work highlights that persistent, long-term, time-series observations are critical for furthering our understanding of carbon cycling between the surface waters and the deep sea. With more companies looking to extract resources from the abyssal plain, these data also give scientists valuable insights into "baseline conditions" in deep-sea areas now under consideration for industrial development or deep-sea mining.

i2Map Research
MBARI has been running video transects in the midwater out in Monterey Bay for the last 25 years. These efforts have historically involved ROVs that have been manually driven to a particular depth and through the transects. This required a whole day of operations on a large ship with a work-class ROV to get just a few transects lines covered. In 2014 the i2map project was started to move task of the recording of these video transects to an AUV. At that point, MBARI had been deploying deep-water AUVs for at least 15 years so a new nose payload with a high resolution camera and a solid-state recorder was built to be tested on an existing AUV.
The advantage of using an AUV for running video transects is not just limited to the reduced work effort. Since after deployment the vehicle operates without supervision for around 24 hours, it can run many more transects that would be possible in a typical day of ROV operations, including transects all the way through the night.
The i2map transects start at 25m and stretch all the way to 1000m. The maximum depth the vehicle can operate in is 1500m.
In 2018 the i2map vehicle got updated with an additional sensor suite as part of MBARIs interest in bioacoustic research, which uses sonars to detect and even identify biology in the water column using their acoustic signature. Now the i2map vehicle has a set of forward and downward looking sonars that work around 200 kHz and 333 kHz.
Combining these instruments with the camera-equipped vehicle allowed to see the influence the vehicle and especially the lights have on the animals around the vehicle. The acoustic system has a much larger range than what can be seen in the camera pictures which allows the study of avoidance and attraction behavior of the creatures. Furthermore, the vehicle is repeating transects without the lights and camera on at all, which can tell the researchers something about if the animals react to the vehicle based on noise or if it is just the super-bright lights.

Even without a residency requirement, attracting talent to city government is extremely difficult. There was a big wage gap between the public and private sectors back in 1976, but it has widened considerably since then.
Since the conditions that called for the original residency requirement have disappeared, it is just another impediment to obtaining the best possible talent with no real rationale or payoff. And to believe, as some apparently do, that living in the city will make workers more committed is an insult to the professionalism of the many in the public workforce who have been exempted from the requirement right along.
This raises another defect: the roughly 40-year history of the requirement reveals that it has been impossible to administer fairly and that even long-time city officials are "confused" about who is really subject to it.
Finally, a Globe story this week makes it clear that some senior members of the Walsh administration are disrupting their personal lives in order to comply, at least technically, with the residency requirement.
This Boston resident would like to free them to concentrate on their jobs.
Mayor Walsh was right to seek an overhaul of the residency requirement. But what we really should do is recognize it for the relic that it is. Junk it.
Paul S. Grogan is president and CEO of the Boston Foundation.

"Dispensed With The Niceties": Hillary Clinton's Grand Strategy To Beat The GOP: Take Bold Positions Early And Often
For the better part of 20 years now, Bill Clinton's presidency has been synonymous with a hazy political concept called triangulation. Since his advisers made the term famous, it has been used to describe everything from standard-issue compromise, to the willingness to confront reactionary elements in one's own party (think Sister Souljah), to the appropriation of another political party's policy ideas. The latter is as close to a proper definition as there is.
One big concern bedeviling progressives is that Hillary Clinton's candidacy will mark the return of triangulation—the preemptive ceding of ideological turf, at a time when, thanks to partisan polarization, such concessions amount to outright victories for the Republican Party. But the early days of Hillary Clinton's candidacy suggest these fears are overblown—that she is engaged in an entirely different kind of political positioning, one that carries the promise of significant progressive victories or at least of clarifying the terms of key policy debates dividing the parties.
The nature of the strategy involves staking out a variety of progressive issue positions that enjoy broad support, but it's not as straightforward as simply identifying the public sentiment and riding it to victory. The key is to embrace these objectives in ways that makes standard Republican counterspin completely unresponsive, and thus airs out the substantive core of their ideas: Rather than vie for conservative support by inching rightward, Clinton is instead reorienting liberal ideas in ways that make the Republican policy agenda come into greater focus.
Most recently, Clinton has adopted an aggressive position in support of expanded voting rights. "We have a responsibility to say clearly and directly what's really going on in our country," she said in her latest campaign speech Thursday, "because what is happening is a sweeping effort to disempower and disenfranchise people of color, poor people, and young people from one end of our country to the other."
This is standard Democratic boilerplate, but in service of something new. Most Democrats have been engaged for some time now in rearguard actions to protect voters from disenfranchisement efforts, and promote a remedy to the damage the Supreme Court did to the Voting Rights Act. These are important efforts, but easily countered. It isn't unpopular to argue that voters should have to show ID, for instance, or to rail against phantom voter fraud, and it's easy to gloss over the complex nature of the Voting Rights Act in ways that obscure the real goal of these policies, which is to systemically reduce turnout among disproportionately Democratic constituencies—the poor, the young, and ethnic minorities.
Clinton's plan, by contrast, demands clarity from her opponents. She has proposed that every American, except those who opt out, be automatically registered to vote when they turn 18, and that every state offer at least 20 days' worth of early voting. Republicans can't easily oppose this—and oppose it they must—without being explicit about the fact that they want to keep the voting rolls as trim as possible.
Most Democrats likewise support President Barack Obama's administrative efforts to liberalize immigration enforcement, and want to create a citizenship track for unauthorized immigrants. Republicans oppose both aims, but have been able to muddle that fact using vague procedural language. Generally speaking, it's not the liberalization of immigration law they oppose, but the unilateral nature of Obama's actions. They oppose amnesty, but keep the door to a nebulous "legal status" ajar. Both positions are malleable enough to allow the Republican presidential nominee to tack dramatically left in the general election, and gloss over the hostility the GOP has shown to immigrants since promising to liberalize after Obama's reelection.
For over a year, Democrats humored the GOP's wordplay in order to preserve the possibility of striking a legislative compromise that includes something Republicans could call "legal status." Now that the immigration reform process has collapsed, Clinton has dispensed with the niceties. In promising to preserve Obama's immigration policies, she called out "legal status" as a ruse. "When [Republicans] talk about legal status," she said, '"that is code for second-class status." She has taken the standard Democratic position and weaponized it. Republicans can't pretend there's no daylight between their views and Democrats' views, because Clinton has defined the Republican position for them, by contrast.
Because this kind of obscurantism pervades the GOP's substantive agenda—through tax policy, social insurance reforms, workplace regulation—Clinton should be able to deploy the tactic across a wide array of issues. Seizing the first-mover advantage is one of the undiscussed upsides of Clinton's dominance in the Democratic primary field. It doesn't guarantee her victory over a Republican opponent, but it will assure that the debate between the two of them occurs mostly above board.

Children at Abinger Common are enjoying their new playground equipment following a refurbishment project organised by Abinger Parish Council.
The work was carried out by Fawns Recreational Services and funded from a grant awarded by the organisers of the Ride London cycle event. A new Birds Nest Swing, Log Walk Weaver, Spiro Wheel and Pick Up Sticks were added to the equipment that was already there while a replacement cradle seat and replacement flat seat were added to the existing swing unit.


Included in the base price of personalized lanyards is the attachment choice of either a swivel hook or key ring. An attachment is the metal found at the end of the lanyard that you would hitch a badge or keys to. The swivel hook (pictured below on the left) is the most popular attachment followed by the key ring (pictured below on the right).
The swivel hook is the traditional attachment. The reason for its popularity is that it conveniently, efficiently, and quickly connects to badges, access cards, and keys.
Some refer to the swivel hook as a J hook.
The key ring attachment is the second most popular fitting. Some of its popularity stems from its familiarity. Everyone has at least one key ring.
It does take a few extra seconds to feed this key ring to attach it to keys, badges, and other key rings. People feel that once they go through the task of opening up the key ring, the object is locked in for good.
The key ring is also referred to as a split ring.
Premium Attachments. These metal fittings for personalized lanyards are extra. Prices shown as per unit.
The bulldog clip is the least popular attachment found on personalized lanyards. It is severly limited by its design. The bulldog clip can only attach to an ID card that has an oblong hole.
Many people use a round hole on their card. You can't attach keys to this attachment as shown, which in some cases, is the only reason why lanyards are being used.
You can only attach keys if you purchase the strap clip (see below), but you are looking at paying a premium price for the bulldog clip and paying extra for the clip.
The lobster claw is the most popular premium attachment. It has a richer look than the other designs. Since it is more expensive than the standard metal fittings.
Some may be familiar with the claw found on jewelry. This grade of attachment is a heavier grade than those found on necklaces and bracelets.
The lobster claw is similar to the swivel hook in how easy it is to affix ID cards and keys.
The strap clip is not an attachment offereed as an exclusive fitting like the other attachments outlined above. It is an accessory to use with one of those attachments. The strap clip is similar in design to the bulldog clip, but with two important differences: it comes with a 2 3/4" strap that you feed through the oblong hold found on slotted ID cards and badge holders. The other distinction: two holes stamped out on one side of the clip. One can easily attach a swivel hook or claw to one of the holes for the badge and have room to spare to secure keys.
Some customers find that the strap is easier on the ID card instead of the metal on the plastic card. You can order the clips in increments of one.

"Tell a Story: You're not suppose to know that"
Out of character knowledge is a bit of a sticky point in games. The players will always know things their characters don't, like the appropriate level for fighting orcs or dragons. But a line had to be drawn somewhere.
Tell a story about when the GM made plain and clear that the player character did not know something, and how it was enforced.

"The Box(tm)"
Well in a recent seaworld campaign we fished up a box.
A well closed, locked up box. We had no idea what could be in it, so in the next harbor we were in we hired a lockpick to open it for us (Believe me, lock picking is not really a useful skill on board of a ship).
It turned out to be a pretty difficult lock that would take about an hour to open, so the captain and others left the room so he could trade and left me with the lockpicker, so that I could call the rest as soon as it opened. Realizing that we didn't have a lot of time, I said I was drawing a map while also keeping a close eye on the lockpicker.
Of course it turns out that the box was trapped (otherwise I wouldn't tell you this story).
While drawing a map I suddenly heard a loud smack, I look up, and the box is open.
But the lockpicker was gone. Vanished in tin air.
And in the box was Nothing. I mean, there wasn't even a bottem, it was endless Nothingness.
So of course I freaked out, and called the captain to ask what to do.
After some stuff happens, the captain finally is there.
The box suddenly has a lot of gold and treasures in it, instead of nothingness, so he of course doesn't believe me and wants to touch it to test if it's real gold (he out of character knew perfectly well that was a terrible idea, but he had the flaw that he was greedy, so he had to)
We were really thankful that just at that moment a fight broke out so the captain had to get to deck.
He went out of the room. I stayed in it, alone, with the box.
And without even a saving trow, I got told that there was a loud bang, and that I woke up in a new place without realizing that I even had lost consciousness...
By that point we were all convinced that being alone in the same room als what we then started to call The Box(tm) was a real bad thing. But we could not find *any* in-character justifications for the captain to not go back in there alone, so the box took him too.
And then one of the other players came back from the harbor, with information that had to go straight to the captain...
and there was no way he could have known that the captain had vanished after entering that room...
Long story short, due to terrible circumstances we all got captured by The Box(tm), except the one player that was bound to the mast of the ship due to having gotten into a fight and about to be punished for that.
In the end, I'm out of character really glad that we all got captured like that (even though I was just as panicking as everyone else at that moment, and trying real hard to come up with in-character excuses why the should went in with someone else, anyone, even an NPC). Because The Box(tm) basically turned out to be a Lotus Machine, and our GM again turned out to be an amazing story teller, making for a real nice rollplaying experience for living your dream while knowing it isn't real...
But that is a story for another time.

The description of how The Box worked sounds a lot like The Luggage from the Discworld novels. Only thing missing is giving it hundreds of tiny legs to walk around on.

"Really poorly"
So in a PTU campaign the GM had me help stat out the BBEG Zygarde... who she ended up having unconcious next to us all in the next session... while my character could talk to Darkrai and go "hey this guys weird should I get rid of him?"
Now despite the fact that Zygard goes around eating goddamn Legendaries Darkrai just goes "Naaah. Don't worry about it" while all the legendaries are also raising hell about someone usurping Giratina. It was really poorly done and she shouldn't have introduced the guy unconscious and had other NPCs insist on bringing him along. And then there was the fact that all the higher-up NPCs were assholes and hypocrites who were keeping secrets from each other (when the secrets were important safety of humanity level secrets) and getting mad when they learned the others were keeping secrets from them.
That campaign didn't last much longer.

I once made a character that had such a ridiculous knowledge/perception that he could sherlock style figure anything out. It got to the point where I could tell that there was a rebellion against the king just from a single comment from a passerby. The drawback, however, was that my character was so used to being right, that he couldn't believe that he was wrong! So on those rare occasions where I rolled a 1, oh boy that sparked some crazy party conflicts!
The rouge in our party lied to the guard that he was actually a part of the royal family and that he was "cousin jimmy". I rolled a one on perception and through a convoluted knowledge believed that he was actually the rightful king, and that he was actually a part of the royal family that the current royal family usurped decades before. Good times!
Oh and yeah, they were many times where the DM told me, "you don't know that!" and then all I had to do was roll my perception and knowledge to figure it out, lol! My min maxing in that game almost literally blew up the entire world!

"That time nobody could find one another"
My first campaign, the DM was getting a more than a little annoyed at our characters' pretty blatant use of Out of Character knowledge. More and more, he was starting to put his foot down, and while it was the right thing to do, you have to understand, this guy was bad at doing it without seeming pointlessly confrontational and railroady.
So, what else could we do? My Wizard went shopping one day, and while he was committing a new ritual to memory, the rogue asked the Shopkeep what was a good place to stay the night. He shouted "Meet you there!" and left.
He then asked the first person he met on the street the same question and got directed to a different Inn. He went there.
I went to the first one, because that was the plan.
The rest of the night was the two of us running all over the city, looking for each other, visiting every Inn in the city, and insisting every time the DM tried to nudge us in the right direction that "That would be using Out of Character Knowledge."
The best part is we didn't plan this. This happened totally by accident and we wasted an entire session doing it.
Kind of a subversion of that. I was running The Mask of Death, the module from The Gamers 2. Everybody had seen it so I was expecting them to metagame more than they did, I was actually kind of proud of them for that, anyways we got to the big confrontation with Mort Kemnon. They had failed to Web the reinforcements, and I had cast darkness on the fighter's shield so they were getting thoroughly trounced when Warpig, my sister's chihuahua, comes in clearly needing to be taken outside, so I take her and when I got back practically all of the enemies were down and some people had raised their hp above zero. It was beautiful how well it lined up with the events of the movie, so I allowed it and we moved on.
It was fun, but only because of the novelty. Lodge is not good at adventure design.
The main thing I took away from the story is that your sister has an awesomely named chihuahua.
I think I've done a pretty good job of balancing the metagame for my group. Just enough that player knowledge is rewarded, but enough gates and twists that it can bite them in the ass if they don't check. Changing descriptions. Shuffling resistances and vulnerabilities. Swapping powers. Using Gygax references enough times that they become complacent.

"I.... I don't know how to respond"
During my first campaign i had a winter vampire (my own thing, part of a thematic set) running a bandit operation in the summer plains. the party found out and tried to give chase, but the portal closed (he couldn't come through, the winter and summer lands were toxic to each other) so they immediately sacrifice one of the bandits to open the portal. i say it's not open on the other side so nothing happens (they were NOT ready for that), but they say they had the ritual notes and would have worked it out so i allowed that..... then one of them says "wait" and goes downstairs to the bandit's prisoners. I think she's going to comfort them so i allow it. she gets a random kid, takes him up to the room and sacrifices THEM instead. i immediately call them out on this then they try to defend that killing the kid is more moral than killing the slaver-bandit. i point out the flaws and she tries to justify it by saying her character didn't know about the ritual and just HAPPENED to go get the kid. and brutally murder them. some people argue all your points and STILL don;t get it

"basically like slayer next"
the guy who recently joined the party was a Demon disguised as a human. I figured that, but my character was really really bad with sense motive, so he did'nt. Anytime i had to say or do something related to the demon i was like "but since he is a demon..." Only for the GM to say "as far as your char know, he is no more a Demon than you grandmother".
a other PC had figured that he was a demon, but did'nt tell anything about it. unlike Gourry, he did'nt said anything simply because the rogue had is own agenda. (we all had our own agenda, in this party).
It did turn out later that my character greatgrandmother was a demon. now my character did'nt knew that either before the reveal.

I once ran into the opposite situation during a Dark Heresy game. We opened a door and inside were two things - one was a female daemon, the second was a bunch of drums smelling of promethium. The tech priest got first initiative and stepped back into the corridor and warned the rest of the party not to shoot into the room (promethium is basically liquid fuel of some description so shooting into the room would be a REALLY bad idea). The next player pondered for a short while before deciding that his character (a scum IIRC) wouldn't really know anything about promethium (despite the warning and that it is a very common thing in most Imperium worlds) and opened up on the daemon with both pistols on full auto. He only needed to miss with one shot to cause the fuel to explode - he only actually hit with one shot. The tech priest had to burn off a fate point to contrive a way for us to survive.

In a similar fashion to his Hermès project, renowned fashion photographer Koto Bolofo (born 1959) moved in backstage at the Versailles Equestrian Academy where the legendary horse trainer, film producer and impresario Bartabas introduced him to the exceptional riders of the royal stables. This opportunity to witness at close quarters the teaching of unique riding techniques (as well as the teaching of other disciplines such as fencing, legends, dance and singing) allowed the photographer to capture some extraordinary images of the equestrian arts. His black-and-white prints, his focus on surface and texture (such as leather, wood and horsehair), on the architectural qualities of the majestic setting, on costumes and the special attention paid to portraiture, create timeless images of an abiding quest for perfection.

Q: PyMunk does not create window - Python I am trying to learn PyMunk library and I used the example from their website.
Here is a code:
import pymunk               # Import pymunk..

space = pymunk.Space()      # Create a Space which contain the simulation
space.gravity = 0,-1000     # Set its gravity

body = pymunk.Body(1,1666)  # Create a Body with mass and moment
body.position = 50,100      # Set the position of the body

poly = pymunk.Poly.create_box(body) # Create a box shape and attach to body
space.add(body, poly)       # Add both body and shape to the simulation

while True:                 # Infinite loop simulation
    space.step(0.02)        # Step the simulation one step forward

When I run it the window does not show up and in CMD it says: Loading chipmunk for Windows (64bit) [C:\Users\Theo\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\pymunk\chipmunk.dll] and does not load anything. I waited for an hour. What is the problem?

A: You should try connecting PyMunk with PyGame or PyGlet to be able to viualize any results through a window.
See more here: http://www.pymunk.org/en/latest/

A: Me too had a shocking surprise trying to run the demo.
So, as @Teodor Cristian said, the basic demo will not draw anything, unless you connect a visualization library. These are optional, as stated in the documentation: PyGame and PyGlet.
This code will not try to open a window, but if you add a print statement you will see that it does "move":
while True:
    space.step(0.02)
    print(body.position)  # add this line

You can check these video tutorials to plug Pyglet (but watch them at 1.5x velocity...):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l2QrTNPCdc&list=PL1P11yPQAo7pH9SWZtWdmmLumbp_r19Hs&index=2
The basic demo with Pyglet would look something like this:
import pymunk
import pyglet
from pymunk.pyglet_util import DrawOptions

options = DrawOptions()

window = pyglet.window.Window(800, 600, "Brackets")

space = pymunk.Space()
space.gravity = (0, -1000)

body = pymunk.Body(1, 1666)
body.position = 400, 500

poly = pymunk.Poly.create_box(body, size=(100, 20))
space.add(body, poly)

# from here, the rest of the code is the render loop

@window.event
def on_draw():
    window.clear()
    space.debug_draw(options)

def update(dt):
    space.step(dt)  # Step the simulation one step forward

pyglet.clock.schedule_interval(update, 1.0 / 60)
pyglet.app.run()

Also, download the Pymunk examples folder and try them out. Some of them uses pyglet, some pygame:
https://github.com/viblo/pymunk/tree/master/examples
Pyglet also has an example folder, so you can see it working isolated too:
https://github.com/pyglet/pyglet/blob/master/examples/hello_world.py

The Troublesome Amputee (Paperback)
By John Edward Lawson
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - June 15th, 2006
The Troublesome Amputee
John Edward Lawson
No description we could give you here would do this book justice. It's risk-taking, funny, brutal, stunningly crafted, more. And yet, something happens inside you each time you finish a poem. It's a moment of recognition and clarity only the best poets bring, something we look for in writing and unfortunately too rarely find. This is certainly not poetry that you'll find at your next timid, don't-hurt-anyone's-feelings "poetry slam." Take the leap: it's worth it.
Jesus Coyote (Paperback)
By Harold Jaffe
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - May 8th, 2008
Jaffe is the inventor of the "docufictional" style of writing. He tells his stories with mixed parts fiction, reportage, phone transcripts, witness testimonies. Jaffe uses all of this to tear down conventional mythologies surrounding important cultural events. In Jesus Coyote, Jaffe explodes the myth of Charles Manson and its effect on the 1960s. In doing so he tears apart our conceptions of morality, authority and our notions of healing. Powerful material, fearless writing.
Health Agent (Paperback)
By Jeffrey Thomas
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - January 14th, 2009
This is the product of William Gibson's foresight mixed with William S. Burroughs' dystopia. Written in the 1980s, Punktown uncannily saw what 2011 would look like. In one of the most vivdly rendered pieces of speculative fiction we have read lately, Thomas blends detective fiction's dramatic pull with speculative fiction's social commentary in a fictitious world. This book is so well written that it will satisfy fans of both genres, as well as fans of classic literary fiction. If you ever wondered what would have happened had Burroughs abandoned the cut-up technique for more straightforward narrative pull, this is it. Phenomenal.
Welcome to Oakland (Paperback)
By Eric Miles Williamson
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - July 1st, 2009
Named one of the best books of the decade, the book that made France's Transfuge magazine call him "one of the twelve great authors of the world." This book is like reading the backside of a lightning bolt: equal parts Henry Miller, Jack London, Steinbeck, Celine, Kerouac and Bukowski. It is a howl from the forgotten places of America, places that Williamson grew up in. At times offensive, brash, lyrical as the best jazz, confrontational, tender, Welcome to Oakland pulls no punches. It will challenge your vision of America, it will challenge your vision of yourself. And take our employee Buffy's word for it: when the dust settles we will look back on this book as one of the hallmark books, one of the true game changers, of the 21st century.
Anti-Twitter: 150 50-Word Stories (Paperback)
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - February 15th, 2010
A complete subversion of the news. Jaffe takes actual news stories and tears them open, boiling them down to fifty word stories. In a world of smoke and mirrors journalism, unchecked propaganda and blatant disregard for the truth, Anti-Twitter is an honest, poetic, clear eyed look at the twenty first century. A brave collection in a time when we need it the most.
Daughters of Lilith (Paperback)
By Donna Lynch, Steven Archer (Illustrator)
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - October 1st, 2010
The art alone makes this worth it. Then the poems hit you and you realize that you are reading something incredibly unique, risk-taking. Each page is a piece of the modern woman rendered anew, perhaps done as a rhyme book for the thinking adult. Everyone's here, from the murderess to the muse to goddess. Truly unique and quite wonderful.
Codename Prague (Paperback)
By D. Harlan Wilson, Brett Weldele (Contribution by)
Kafka and William Burroughs meet Frederick Forsyth. In a wild, unpredictable cyberpunk satire, Wilson takes on all comers and leaves us with a stunner of a novel. As a hitman is sent out on a case that pushes him to his limits, our fascination and reliance on technology is eviscerated, our modern lives exposed. It is tempting to give much away about this book, but we'll leave it with our highest recommendation: just see for yourself. You won't regret it.
Airplane Novel (Paperback)
By Paul a. Toth
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - July 12th, 2011
Few novels that tackle 9/11 avoid trite sentimentality. Toth's novel approaches the events from the perspective of the South Tower. By breaking the rules of fiction Toth ends up creating one of the few books to deal with 9/11 right. It's a brilliant look at the events, their impact and the deeper truths. Very interesting work.
Go Love (Paperback)
By Michael Gills
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - October 27th, 2011
Long known as one of America's best short story writers, Gills bursts forth with his first novel. Short, tight, lyrical, Gills proves that he is as adept as the longer form as he is the shorter.
A Dirge for the Temporal (Paperback)
By Darren Speegle
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - August 1st, 2004
Horror fans rejoice. Here is a return to the bonechiller, the well-crafted tale. Fans of Barker, Lovecraft and Poe will find a new writer to love here, people looking for something out of their comfort zone will be surprised into something great. Speegle is a superb writer who knows how to push the envelope but never falls trap to B-Movie antics or sloppy prose. Superb work.
Everybody Scream! (Paperback)
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - January 1st, 2005
Continuing his phenomenal "Punktown" series, Thomas uses the setting of a carnival to explore the limits of sci-fi, noir and more. Full of plot twists, good humor and superb writing, Everybody Screams, will keep you riveted from start to finish. Eclectic, thought provoking writing from one of today's best front-guard sci-fi writers. A great introduction to the novelist if you haven't read him yet.
Terror-Dot-Gov (Paperback)
Jaffe's "docufiction" at his best. Here Jaffe takes official news stories and blends them seamlessly with fiction. In doing so, the lies we're being told are exposed, the truths that are out in the open are seen in a new light. Jaffe is one of the bravest writers out there today and years from now it is books like Terror-Dot-Gov that will be looked at as the twenty first century's answer to George Orwell. We'll be studying and reading this book for some time to come.
Fish, Soap and Bonds (Paperback)
By Larry Fondation, Kate Ruth (Illustrator)
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - March 1st, 2007
Fondation's first full novel after three collections of stories, Fish, Soap & Bonds is the type of fiction that once was hugely popular in this country. It is the type of fiction that won Steinbeck and Sinclair Lewis their Nobel Prizes; that made James T. Farrell a classic. Yet, Fondation has done something else. In his highly compressed, fearless prose, Fondation has managed to make angels out of the street, re-arranging our perceptions of our own cities in the process. Here he engages you on all fronts and carries a depth that marks him as one of the rarest of writers. Not to be missed.
A Child's Guide to Death (Paperback)
By John Edward Lawson, Dustin Lavalley, Darin Malfi (Illustrator)
WARNING: THIS BOOK IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN
This is an A- Z book for adults that need a good, dark laugh. You've never seen anything like this, from the subversive content to phenomenal artwork/woodcuts. Rather hard to describe, but unforgettable when you read it, this is one to remind you not to take life too seriously: we don't get out alive anyway.
Worse Than Myself (Paperback)
These stories are powerful, riveting tales that are simultaneously lyrically beautiful and relentlessly moving. Elements of horror cling to the stories, making them something unlike any recent short fiction we know of. Stephen King's more literary short stories come close, but they don't operate like this. This is the lonely, terrifying prose of fiction that mixes Flannery O'Connor with Poe and Richard Bloch. This is subtle, original prose, a book hard to describe but one of the easiest recommendations we can make.
Unintended Consequences (Paperback)
Christopher Isherwood Fellowship winner Fondation's stories are compressed, touching examples that are a clear look into the America too many wish to forget. Fondation's writing is concrete and powerful; like reading a series of the most stunning black and white photographs. What is most remarkable about them is the precision, how he can tell so much with so few words. He is one of the best unknown—if not the best—writers in America. This collection of stories will make you a believer and a fan.
14 Fictional Positions (Paperback)
***Winner PEN/Oakland Award 2011***
Williamson is the editor of two of the most prestigious literary journals in the country and the director of the National Book Critics Circle. Simply put, he is one of the finest literary minds at work today. This collection of short stories show Williamson at his most experimental. For as experimental as they are, they are accessible, intelligent and a pleasure to read. If you were to only read "Cerusa" and "Skaters" you'd still be changed for the better. Discovering Williamson's work is like discovering fire.
Monstrous Creatures: Explorations of Fantasy Through Essays, Articles and Reviews (Paperback)
By Jeff VanderMeer
Published: Guide Dog Books - March 11th, 2011
Everything VanderMeer touches is excellent. Whether he's editing anthologies of steampunk, writing short stories or novels, making fake guides to horrible diseases or here, in Monstrous Creatures, flexing his muscle as a critic, essayist and commentator, VanderMeer never fails to reward. Monstrous Creatures is a brilliant collection, focusing on science fiction and the art of writing. VanderMeer is a thoughtful teacher, a writer of great strength and depth. Regardless of whether you read science fiction or not, Monstrous Creatures will provoke serious thinking on literature and the sweat involved in making it. A treat.
Darker Shade of Green (Paperback)
By Mickey Z
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - April 28th, 2011
Mickey Z. is a great proponent of "activist literature." His work forces readers to rethink politics, to reshape their ideas. He is unabashedly didactic and in doing so attempts to make his readers aware. In Darker Shade, Mickey Z. is concerned with the environment in a novella that has similar concerns to Edward Abbey's Monkeywrench Gang. It is a timely novel worried about events and ideas that are going to look even more timely as we speed toward the next election.
Gardens of Earthly Delight (Paperback)
By George Williams
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - June 6th, 2011
After his novel Degenerate came out, we eagerly awaited another from George Williams. Very quietly, he has been producing some of the best fiction in recent memory. Taught, lyrical, absolutely electric in their presentation, Williams' stories will knock you out. Stunning doesn't do these pieces of art justice. And the title is apt, his fictions work like a Hieronymus Bosch painting: oddly grotesque, beautiful and realist to the core. Fans of good literature will rejoice with this one.
Hellbender (Paperback)
By Jason Jack Miller
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - September 5th, 2012
Here Appalachian folklore meets horror and gothic fiction. Bleak, dark and as gritty as Johnny Cash's finest, Miller holds nothing back. Sharp writing that takes you into the heart of America, that place where the high-lonesome sound was born. Dark and brilliant.
The Devil and Preston Black (Murder Ballads and Whiskey) (Paperback)
Miller ups the ante big time with his latest novel. His roaring blend of the southern gothic, horror and classic American realism does not fail here. The book just rips forth. There's a group of musicians in the country underground who call their music "hellbilly": there's not a more perfect term for Miller's novel. Brilliant.
100 Jolts: Shockingly Short Stories (Paperback)
By Michael a. Arnzen, Matt Sesow (Illustrator)
Flash fiction written bloody, at the end of a gun, like a barrage of bullets. Horror writing meets experimental fiction and the results are excellent. Arnzen isn't afraid to go to some pretty dark places and he's so good you'll willfully go along on the ride. If only more writers took chances like this.
Isabel Burning (Paperback)
By Donna Lynch
Paranoia is what settles deep into this novel. It creeps and boils at every turn and far after you are done this book you'll feel altered, as if it climbs up on you too. This book is everything good about horror writing: it unravels and winds up on you, revealing as much about yourself and your own fears as it does the characters'. Superb work.
Sheep and Wolves (Paperback)
By Jeremy C. Shipp
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - December 1st, 2008
If the early short story writing Stephen King met Kafka and mixed with a heady dose of modern politics, you'd get Shipp's Sheep and Wolves. Here are the crossroads of psychologically intense literary horror and existentially bleak meditations on man. These stories do it all and reward endlessly. They'll get you late at night, they'll make you think, and most importantly they'll make you question yourself and your world. This is one of the most interesting and exciting collections we've seen in a very long time. Superb.
Better Haunted Homes and Gardens (Paperback)
By Jennifer C. Barnes, Kristen Margiotta (Illustrator)
Published: Imaginary Books - April 30th, 2009
A ghost goes looking for a house to haunt and live in but needs the help of a ghoulish real estate agent: Lady MacBeth. Good clean Halloween and horror writing for the young, with great illustrations to match the story. One to share with the family.
Conrad in Beverly Hills (Paperback)
By Jake Fuchs
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - September 15th, 2010
A richly textured novel of Hollywood in the 1950s and 60s, Conrad in Beverly Hills is West's Day of the Locusts meets Toole's Confederacy of Dunces. Sharp, beautifully told in a wry humor that is insightful and funny, Fuchs' novel is a highwater mark of recent fiction. There's much to like here: social commentary, great writing, solid unforgettable characters. Here's to hoping we see much more from Jake Fuchs.
The Gorelets Omnibus (Paperback)
By Michael a. Arnzen
Arnzen is horror's experimental master. Constantly persuing ways to deliver maximum punch with minimal words, his poetry reveals sharp thinking in dark corners done right. Compression, the ability for few words to do the work of many, makes its mark in these poems. Fun and dark, not much more horror fans can ask for.
The Blood Poetry (Paperback)
By Leland Pitts-Gonzalez
Published: Raw Dog Screaming Press - August 8th, 2012
You'll put this novel down and realize that you have never encountered anything like this before. Horror writing that is as it should be: penetrating deep into the psyche, so much so that it changes how you look at the world. We think it will go down as a classic. It will certainly chill more than a few spines first.
Revolutionary Brain (Paperback)
Published: Guide Dog Books - December 5th, 2012
As zombies overtake our literature and survivalist shows take over television Jaffe uses these essays to peer into the question of the apocalypse. He deconstructs our obsession with technology, points out our foibles and errors and as always, does so in his unique and powerful prose. Thought provoking work.

Q: NestJS, try to use ormconfig.ts, it broke everything I tried to use ormconfig.json in order to follow this tutorial and I encountered several errors.
Firstly: I create the ormconfig.ts file in the root as in the tutorial, I run the project and I get an error telling me that I can't use "import" outside of a module.
Second: According to what I read on the forums, I change the "type" to "module" in package.json and the "module" to "ES2015" to be able to use the import.
It doesn't work, apparently I have to add "moduleResolution" to "node".
It still doesn't work.
Third: I resign to use ormconfig.json instead, remove all my changes and go back to the base but everything is still broken. Currently I have an error telling me that "exports is not defined" in /dist/main.js

A:      ormconfig.ts

When your app starts, the expectation is we run only javascript code. Nest js transpiles all the code to dist/ and run javascript code.
However when your app starts up Typeorm will look for ormconfig.ts and execute it, but at that point, Nestjs is already done transpiling .ts files. Typeorm will execute .ts file as though it is a .js file that is why you are getting error.
Instead create ormconifg.js and use plain javascript. instead of export
     module.exports={}

Now you will get "Cannot use import statement outside a module". Because you are providing entities which are .ts files. Remember this file gets executed after we transpiled everything  into plain js. the solution is to import entities from .ts files, go into the dist folder and get the transpiled version of the all of the entity files.
  entities:['**/*.entity.js']

But this setting will break your test environment. in test environment, nest uses "ts-jest-transformer" which allows us somehow directly execute a ts file. it loads the ts and immediately converts into js and then executes the result. now if we set ormconfig.js, in test environment this file will get executed by "ts-jest-transformer" but we are not allowed to execute .js file. we have to tell jest, if u see a .js file just go ahead and execute it.  add this into tsconfig.json file
        allowJs:true

The issue will continue :) Becasue since you set tyormconfig.s, you loaded entities from dist/ which are .js files. So depending in our environment we either load entities from .ts or .js files.
entities:process.env.NODE_ENV==='development'
                               ? ['**/*.entity.js']
                               : ['**/*.entity.ts']

The U.S. Under-18 Men's National Team scored four third period goals and held a 41-17 shot advantage to earn a 5-1 victory against Russia here today in the quarterfinals of the 2018 IIHF Under-18 Men's World Championship at Traktor Ice Rink.
The victory marked the first quarterfinal victory against Russia in the history of the tournament and improved its record against Russia to 7-1-0-10 (W-OTW-OTL-L) all-time.
The victory also secured Team USA a spot in the semifinal for the 16th consecutive year.
The U.S. will now face the Czech Republic in the semifinal on Saturday. Opening faceoff is set for 7:30 p.m. local (10:30 a.m. ET) and can be seen live on NHL Network.
"I thought our defense did a great job handling the speed and talent of Russia's line rushes," said Seth Appert (Cottage Grove, Minn./USAH NTDP), head coach of the U.S. Under-18 Men's National Team. "We've done a really good job offensively throughout this tournament and our continued focus on improving our defensive play will help us keep getting better in every game we play."
UPDATING QUARTERFINAL HISTORY
The U.S. played in its 11th quarterfinal matchup i20-year0 year history of the IIHF Under-18 Men's World Championship today. In the previous 10 quarterfinal matchups the U.S. has only lost once. The loss came back in 2001 when the U.S. made its first appearance in the quarterfinals. The U.S. lost to the Czech Republic 5-4 in overtime. Since that point, the U.S. has now won the straight quarterfinal matchups, including three against the Czech Republic, who they will now face in tomorrow's semifinal matchup.

Joel Farabee (Cicero, N.Y.) is tied for second in Team USA goals (4) and shots on goal (24) and scored the short-handed game-winning goal for the U.S. against Russia today. Currently playing in his second IIHF Under-18 Men's World Championship, Farabee was only one of two players to be called up from the Under-17 age group last year. Last April, the Boston University commit had six points (3 goals, 3 assists) in the tournament, helping Team USA win their tenth gold medal.
Recently, NHL.com highlighted Joel as one of the NHL Central Scouting's top ranked prospects. To read the profile, click here. Scroll below to see some of his 'Favorites.'
